Sam and baby Bell at the South Shore.

Racing Caleb and Olin on the swings.

Sam and Karina on the 3rd.

Caleb takes a picture of his mother, aunt, and, um... yeah.

Sam and I enjoy the Big Bang.

Caleb on fireworks: "There goes this one!"

More of us in our front row seats in Granny & Poppa's 26th floor lake-view cabin.

At the pool on the 4th.

With Granny & Poppa at the Lake Park Fourth Celebration on July 5th.

Caleb serenades Kirsten on her birthday. "A-one and a-two," he would say, leading some to think he'd been watching Lawrence Welk.

Granny, Aunt Julie, Sam, and Uncle Mark work at Legos.

Grampa Jim procured us seats with this view at the 7/5/10 game at Miller Park, Milwaukee vs. San Francisco.

Prince Fielder wears my birthdate. And belt size.

At the ballpark with Tristan, Karina, Tim, Kathleen, and Kirsten. Tristan cleaned our mini-van windows on the way home; as I told him, that makes him a pretty cool dude in my book.

Caleb drives the tractor home.
